Contested PROD. No mention or evidence of this location has been found anywhere to show that it was populated; known only from a GNIS entry (which does not establish notability). This is one of dozens of similar stub articles on nonexistent or non-notable California locations created by the same user during a short period in 2009, based only on GNIS entries. Another user has added two references since my PROD, but neither one mentions Copper City at all. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 18:35, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

delete Searching is heavily masked by the other much more notable spot in Shasta County, about which there is considerable material; in contrast, the one citation in the article which leads to anything other than listings is to a (dead) genealogical site, which cites nothing itself. The reliability of these is very dicey. Mangoe (talk) 02:45, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - There just ain't no there there. A mining camp that according to the article "dissipated nearly as quickly as it sprung up" is not any kind of actual community, much less one with the legal recognition required by GEOLAND. FOARP (talk) 13:33, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. I initially contested the PROD but the online paper trail as of 2023 is too thin to defend it. Au revoir, Copper City, Glenn County (originally Colusa County). jengod (talk) 22:09, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
